It isn't about personnel, it's Emery's style.
Every player at the club deserves a shot at game time when fit.
I think Mustafi has been very professional throughout all this. Many players would have gone into a sulk after being literally thrown under the bus , both on and off the pitch, by their own fans and club management.
As a side note , It was nice seeing someone in our defence just boot the ball into the sky when under threat. Every other club has cottoned on to the fact that we can no longer string 3 passes together when under pressure.
Chambers 2 starts, 2 clean sheets
Midfield is set up horribly wrong, fixing that should be a priority but Emery seems to have long term problems tactically
Mustafi > Sokratis
Midfield is a shambles and emery doesn't have a clue how to keep us solid.
The defence is constantly bombarded with attacks because there is no discipline from MF.
Hard to judge our defence under Emery
Have you all forgot Mustafi’s performance against Palace last season which cost us Top 4 and started off this disgusting run off performances that we are still stuck in. The guy is a scuuumbag bottler stealing a living and a half decent performance against pub opposition in a pub tournament doesn’t change that. Just because Sokratis and Luiz are awful doesn’t make Mustafi any better.
We have 3 poor CB at our club. Sokratis, Luiz and Mustafi. None of them are good enough. Kolasinac is also a very poor defender. The sooner Tierney comes in the better.I would play Chambers and Holding at CB.. The major problem is Emery. Tactically he is not top 4 standard and after 18 months he still can't speak more than pigeon English. Disgraceful. Our MF is like an open door when teams attack us. No cover for the defenders.
Mustafi in his earlier months in Arsenal was certainly far better than Sokratis. But the guy was abysmal in the run-in of last season and cost us top 4. If he distinguishes himself in training, there is no reason he shouldn't start. But at his age, his propensity for dumb errors will always be part of him.
